I think that part of the confusion about the defroster is the difference between defrosting (removing ice/frost on the outside of the windshield) and defogging (removing fog from the inside of the windshield). I live in Central California; I don't have a defrosting problem but I definitely have a defogging problem in the winter. The whole window can fog-up in a matter of seconds while driving depending on conditions (going from clear to foggy in seconds after several minutes of driving). And since it is on the inside, the windshield wipers don't help. So I need 1-press to activate massively hot defogging.
One thing that I have hated about all of my previous cars (1977 Pontiac Grand Prix, 1992 Pontiac Bonneville, 2006 Infiniti M35) is that I couldn't heat the windshield without heating the passenger compartment also. Duh... With my Tesla Model Y, there is the potential to actually do this. So once this feature works and is 1-touch, then I'll be extremely happy.
And I think my last point is valid for all of us: there are features that we as individuals care passionately about and others that we as individuals can totally ignore. So at some point, Tesla will probably enable us to put the buttons that we want at the bottom of the screen. Unlike all other vehicles, Tesla's reliance solely on a totally programmable interface (touch screen) allows for this and is unique in the automotive industry.
So I'm very excited about the possibility that V11 could enable, and am just awaiting the activation.
